Not for me they're not, I don't drive.

Stop paying the prices they're charging you if you feel you're being robbed. Walk instead.

They want you buying electric cars so this is how they're gonna force you into it.

Buy a horse and cart. They run on water, carrots and apples.

Fuel prices affect everyone - trucks use fuel, fuel goes up, transport prices go up, so food prices go up. You’re paying for it with every loaf of bread whether you drive or not.

Worst I saw here so far was €2.20, most places are around €2.04/.06, think that's around £1.75-£1.85

I was on the M25 earlier and saw it priced at £1.95 a litre for normal unleaded.

Some big differences between supermarkets again - last night Tesco was 1.89 but Morrisons was £1.82.

I like the line about the increased petrol prices won’t make any difference if you only put £20 in every time

I managed to get petrol for about £1.75 (Asda) yesterday and felt like I'd won the lottery

Yeah I filled up at Asda the other day.

Normally costs me shy of £100, I paid just under £93 at Asda.

Can't remember the price per gallon, but think it was like £1.81 but that's for diesel, might have been bit cheaper.
